Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Patients must have been diagnosed with PV according to the 2016 WHO criteria within 3 years before randomization
  • * Patients must have JAK2V617F-positive disease
  • * Patients with PV must meet the definition of HR for thrombosis (i.e., HR) at screening as follows:
  • * Age ≥ 60 years, and/or
  • * Prior thrombosis.
  • * Patients must be in need of treatment at screening, defined by the presence of at least one of the following:
  • * HCT ≥ 45% or HCT \< 45% with at least 1 phlebotomy performed in the 3 months before screening, or
  • * WBC count \> 10 × 109/L, or
  • * PLT count \> 400 × 109/L.
  • * Patients must have normalized HCT (i.e., HCT \< 45%) at randomization
  • * Patients pre-treated with HU with a documented history of resistance or intolerance to HU defined by the original ELN criteria
  • * Patients with a QTcF value of \> 450 msec for males and \> 460 msec for females at the Screening visit (as the mean of 3 consecutive readings 5 minutes apart in the event a first ECG demonstrates a prolonged QTcF interval); congenital or acquired history of QTc prolongation or ventricular arrhythmias, at the Screening visit
  • * Splanchnic thrombosis and/or thrombosis of the cerebral venous sinuses and/or splenectomy in the medical history
  • * Patients with clinically significant cardiovascular disease
  • * Patients with myocardial infarction, stroke or unstable angina within the 6 months prior to screening.
  • * Patients with inadequate liver or renal function at screening
  • * Uncontrolled hypertriglyceridemia at screening, i.e., triglycerides ˃ 1.5 × ULN
  • * Previous treatment with a JAK2 or HDAC inhibitor or 32-phosphorus (radioactive isotope) therapy.
  • * Patients being treated concurrently with any investigational agent or prior participation in an interventional clinical study within the 30 days prior to screening or within 5 half-lives of the investigational product, whichever is longer.
  • * Pregnant or nursing women
